The coalition forces led by Link broke through many knights' estates, and all the places they passed were scorched, whether it was the stone houses where the knights lived, the thatched houses where the tenants lived, the wooden arrow towers, the delicate wells made of stones, the noisy animal pens, the depressed wheat fields and orchards, all of which were plundered by the coalition and then burned.

Most of the owners of these manors were either killed in battle, or took their attendants and armed farmers to follow the steel regent south to serve allegiance, leaving behind a very weak defense force, often only the knight's wife with a minor son and housekeeper, with a few veterans as the core, mobilized dozens of young men to take short bows and spears on the manor wall, the richer manor may have the children of apprentice priests or knights of magic apprentices, this level of force relies on the walls and arrow towers, after lighting the beacon fire to summon reinforcements from the nearby manor, it is not a problem to deal with a hundred or so goblins or dozens of orcs。

But this time, they faced an enemy of thousands of alien troops, and no amount of tactics could successfully defend the manor in such a numerical disparity, and the tenant farmers were more or less trained, and they fought to defend their homeland, and faced a murderous alien army, so they also managed to maintain considerable morale.

Raiding these manors is very simple, the manors with crops and orchards as the main business, often can only gather dozens of young defenders, even if they are rich enough to have a textile workshop or plantation, often can only gather a hundred or so defenders, orc archers go down a few rounds of bows and arrows, suppress the arrow tower and wall, dozens of orcs attack the wall with long ladders, mountain infantry attack the gate with battering rams made of logs, and after breaking through, they line up, the shield hand is in front, the spearman attacks in the gap in the shield array, and the archer shoots at the end, and the defenders can be easily defeated。

Link let different alien tribes attack in turn, and the mountain infantry under his command kept attacking, taking the opportunity to train the troops, and the captured food and materials were distributed according to the proportion of the troops, as for the goblins and kobolds who followed, Link didn't care much, and it was up to them what they could grab.

As for the miserable experience of the humans in the manor, Link can only pretend to be invisible, this time the troops were originally to force the chiefs to send troops, the orc mercenaries under Link's command are not 100% obedient to Link, Link can only restrain the two hundred mountain infantry under him, and let them withdraw after killing the resistance forces, and the captured materials are counted by the trainer and the orc mercenaries, supervised by other tribes, and distributed after returning, Link only ordered the infantry to try to protect the captured craftsmen and their families, and the relatives of other tenants and knights can only face the greedy orcs。

The towns on the plains were a little more difficult to deal with, they were more affluent, often with walls and turrets made of stone, and even ballistas and small catapults, and the inhabitants were in the thousands, and after gathering a few nearby village guards, the guards of the towns were often up to three hundred, and they were relatively well-armed, with light crossbows and scimitar swords, and the soldiers were often able to wear leather armor.

In the face of such a goal, it is necessary for a few orc priests around Link to dispatch, this time Link did not bring Balusawa, Nyata's magic learning has made a breakthrough, and he is about to be able to perform the fourth-level arcane, Link asked Balusa to stay and take care of Niata, and at the same time deter the disgruntled chiefs.

Lacking high-end combat power, Link asked several orc priests for help, and the priests were afraid that Link would deliberately consume the power of his tribe and want to take advantage of the opportunity to make a profit, so they quickly agreed.

To deal with the town, the archers need to continuously consume arrows to suppress the city wall, the heavily armored orcs need to brave arrows, burning asphalt, stones, boiled human and animal dung to charge the city wall with long ladders, a large number of goblins and kobolds are also driven to share the pressure of the orcs, and several orc priests take the opportunity to distinguish the strong on the city wall, this kind of town often has a few priests of good gods to help defend the city, and even a hired mage from Sambia, and elven archers from the south are everyone's nightmare.

Link's hillmen infantry were still tasked with attacking the city gates, but Link often waited for the asphalt and burning manure on the walls to be depleted before sending out the hillmen, and even then the hillfolk infantry took a heavy toll on them.

At the suggestion of Konaid, the mountain infantry learned from the orcs how to build a ladder and a battering ram, and learned a lot of useful knowledge, how to tie the ladder is a university question, the top of the ladder has an iron component made by captured Cormier craftsmen, as soon as it is put on the city wall, it will be deeply embedded in the city wall, it is difficult to push down, the simplest battering ram is a log, and the battering ram to deal with the town gate is to be made into a shield car, the log is sharpened and wrapped with iron rams, made into a shield car, and the battering ram is placed inside, and there are wheels under the shield car, and the top is a thick angular plank, and it is also covered with watered raw cowhide。

Burning rockets and asphalt, boiling dung, fire glue and mage fireballs all brought serious casualties to the mountain infantry who attacked the city gate with battering rams, and the orcs and goblins often paid more casualties to capture the city wall, but the rich profits and wanton killings after breaking the city wall made the aliens very excited, the grain depot and the knight's house, the town governor's official residence was captured, the armor and weapons of the arsenal, and the goods of each workshop were distributed by the public, and the other seizures were their own.

The houses of the burghers, the personal property of the soldiers who died in battle, the goods and money of the markets in the towns, the storehouses of the merchants, the precious metal sacrificial vessels in the temples, the pretty trainee priestesses, the wines of the taverns, and the food of the restaurants, these are all objects that can be plundered.

While trying his best to restrain the military discipline of the mountain infantry, Link released the prisoners of the town prison, gathered a group of ruffians and speculators in the town, and the frightened surrender guards, and formed a separate brigade, with the orc mercenaries acting as overseers, so that these people could replenish the battle damage and act as the leading party.

After attacking three towns in succession, Link did not divide his troops, but slowly led his increasingly bloated troops around the plains, extorting a sum of money and food when he encountered an insurmountable castle or an oversized town, and went around to continue his advance, leaving these enemies waiting ill-intentioned in the rear, and looting all the towns that could be attacked when he encountered manors and workshops, gathering more ruffians and forced farmers and townsmen.

In the end, Link ushered in a coalition army of nearly two thousand, composed of the Purple Dragon Legion border guards, noble private soldiers, village militia, and town guards, led by a noble mage with a hundred heavily armored cavalry, and before more enemies gathered, Link took out Balushahua's communication ring and contacted the long-awaited Revaran, who used a few meteor burst spells to completely crush the formation of the coalition army, and hundreds of elite ghost people legions converged with Link's chamber of commerce army to completely defeat the coalition army.

Looking at the chaotic battlefield and the orcs cheering for the loot, Link let out a sigh of relief, now it's up to him to see if the plan can succeed.
